Parker made five 3-pointers as the Commodores (10-14, 4-8 Southeastern Conference) won the first meeting between the schools since 1955.

Elston Turner, coming off a 37-point performance against Mississippi on Wednesday, scored 14 points on 7-of-19 shooting for the Aggies.

Vanderbilt used a 20-6 run spanning the first and second half to pull away from A&M (15-10, 5-7). Parker followed his final 3-pointer with a nifty reverse layup for the largest lead of the game, at 46-33, with 8:37 left.

The Aggies stormed back and closed the gap to 56-51 with 1:29 remaining. But Odom drained his career high-tying fourth 3-pointer to halt the rally.

A&M jumped ahead 7-0 early, making its first three shots. Commodores coach Kevin Stallings called a timeout and vented his frustration to his team. It responded with an 11-2 flurry.
